"Bugger thy Neighbour? ibsa and South–South Solidarity" Authors: Philip Nel & Ian Taylor Third World Quarterly, 34:6, 1091-1110 dx.doi.org/10.1080/01436597.2013.802507 "This Special Issue of Third World Quarterly, with its focus on the foreign policies of emerging powers, provides an appropriate opportunity to consider the track record of ibsa in living-up to the self-imposed benchmarks of sss. It is also an opportune time to pause and consider whether the promise of solidarity and the reality of ssc do indeed overlap sufficiently to justify the current, almost universal hype around ssc, which has apparently captured the imagination of most international organisations. In what follows we argue that the depth of sss as exemplified in the foreign economic behaviour of ibsa is compromised by the direct results of their actions, but also by some negative externalities created by their policies. The question that we want to explore is whether the behaviour of ibsa is as coherent in promoting solidarity as its proclaimed narrative."
